| Segment Reporting |
Note
18. Segment Reporting
The Company has two operating segments – digital assets and merchant banking. The chief operating decision maker (“CODM”)
is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The measure of profit or loss used by the CODM to identify and measure the Company’s
reportable segments is income before income tax. The Company’s digital assets segment includes the operations related to the ETH
treasury strategy. Our merchant banking segment includes our equity and other holdings. The “other” category primarily includes
rental income and expenses related to the Company’s real estate in Canada and the land and building previously owned and operated
by Digital Ignition.
The
following tables present the financial information for each segment that is specifically identifiable or based on allocations using internal
methodology for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 (in thousands):
